The Summit Of Asheville Homes for Sale

First Impressions

The Summit of Asheville reads like a true mountain escape: gated, elevated, and set high above the everyday pace of Canton. The lots here are large by design, with many parcels stretching 10 acres or more, and the setting is defined by long-range views, forested slopes, and a sense of space that’s hard to miss. Several homesites sit on paved roads with underground utilities already in place, which gives the community a more polished feel than a typical raw-land enclave. At roughly 3,500 feet in elevation, the landscape opens up to layered mountain vistas, sunrise-to-sunset light, and a backdrop that changes with the season.

Home Styles & Community Feel

This is primarily a land community, so the appeal centers on what can be built rather than a finished housing stock. The lots are intended for single-family mountain residences, and some allow a primary home plus guest houses or an additional structure, depending on the parcel. That flexibility is part of the draw. A few sites already have driveways, culverts, or landing areas in place, while others offer flat or partially cleared building spots that make the planning process feel more approachable. The overall mood is private and spacious, with covenants that protect the character of the setting by limiting subdivision. Trails, streams, waterfalls, and abundant wildlife add to the mountain-living atmosphere without feeling overdeveloped.
